Looks like a very clean, well equipped boat. Nicely setup for racing with spinnaker, boomkicker, and tacktick instruments.
No trailer - but good price for boat, equipment, and "apparent" condition.
See 88 F235 in Mystic, CT Ad
Also do not think boat is in the database. _________________ Kevin Meechan

Thanks, Kevin. I've just emailed one of the brokers asking for hull ID info, etc. Hopefully he'll respond so we can add Gomah II to the Directory. _________________ Neil Quigley

Hull #235 ! the boat's current name is Goomah II
Surely the novelty value of owning hull #235 will prompt a quick sale of this one!
Finally, hull number 235 has been found. Mark at Sailing Specialties emailed back very promptly and gave me the hull ID number. I've emailed Kelly to ask him to add this boat to the Directory. I hope whoever buys her will join us here so we can add a name and contact link to the Directory entry. _________________ Neil Quigley

Yeah - it's like a sigh of relief to me. Adding #235 seems to validate the list, but I know it's just one more boat ... heh, I (almost) don't care now if anyone else joins the Directory - just kidding! _________________ Neil Quigley

Hull #235 was sold to sparrow. She also purportedly has a custom fin. Pics coming soon. She's now in Newport, RI under the name Sparrow.

I had some updates for a client due before the next morn... Sadly, this place becomes a Procrastination Haven if I'm feeling uninspired during some other task. So I bring my lack of inspiration HERE in full glory. heh...
I actually try to do most of my work at night and morning, hopefully bringing more free time in the day. So to answer your question, YES, I should have been either asleep or doing something productive (such as posting a pic of a rudder assembly...).

That explains why I keep getting such prompt responses from you - hey you must be living in Australian time!! All you need to do now is to have a lobotomy and start talking "strein" and you can become one of us!!

And hull #235 turned out to have the other Mars "lead" fin keel conversion as well. See Dave's new F235 "Sparrow" with the lead keel pics. Interesting how the ad never even mentioned it (nor got the specs right).
